Skyrim: The Forsworn Conspiracy bug?

So today I started a new character on Skyrim and began doing the quest line in Markath for the Forsworn. I finished the quest, but the guards in the Shrine of Talos blamed me for murdering and wanted to send me to jail. I killed them and ran out of the building.

I finished the quest, but the guards in the Shrine of Talos blamed me for murdering and wanted to send me to jail. I killed them and ran out of the building. More guards attacked me so I yielded and they said, "Halt. You are under arrest for murder and conspiracy against the city of Markath." I said "I submit. Take me to jail." Nothing happens, I get the speech option "What's the problem?" And he says, "By the word of the Jarl, stop right there! You have committed crimes against Skyrim and her people, what say you in your defense?" I say "I submit take me to jail." Then I go to jail without the quest 'No One Escapes From Cidha Mine.'

The only save I have before it auto-saved from my exiting the Shrine of Talos is one from when I was level one in Whiterun. Help, please.

Best Answer: Its probably just a glitch
GLITCH RESOLUTION OPTIONS
1. 2 Many Miscellaneous Quest; check you quest under miscellaneous if you have too many, it will cause the game to get glitchy. Go finish those out and then come back to that quest.

2. Overheating System; If you have been playing non-stop for 4 - 5 hours take a break (Turn the Game Off, Eat, Sleep, Go For a Walk, or Watch a Movie) then go back to gaming.

3. RE-LOAD: Yes, you might lose some experience or have to redo a mission but sometimes it worth it.
4. NEVER, EVER Exploit glitches or use Cheat Codes play the game as it was intended.

Dude that happened to me , here's what I did ; Walked in to Markarth , avoided the guards and attacked a key character ( the jarl) after that some guards came in and I yielded after that they finally took me to jail , BUT IN ORDER TO PROGRESS USE THE ACTION TO MINE D: DO NOT ATTACK THE SILVER VEIN ( sorry for the caps lock xD it's just that i made the mistake of attacking the vein instead if doing the action xD if you attack the vein you'll be glitched into staying in jail/mine forever ) hope this helps

Have you gone to the right shrine? And maybe it's just that the guards are retarded as always. I've ha problems where they just attack me even though I'm yielded, like they start talking to me and they exit and start swingin at me D: but they're glitched I general. Idk what to tell you, but you may have to just skip doing the quest. Plus if you're not doing time I prison maybe that's your problem, you may be pushing the game by breaking out (not saying you are). Even so, the guards shouldn't be just randomly arresting you and not take you to the quest start. Sorry, bro, you may have to start over :c

If you let the guards in the shrine of talos arrest you, a new quest is started. Dont attack them or try to run cause then a bounty will pile up on you and you wont be able to return to Markarth without being attacked
